Metallica “One” on the Howard Stern Show (2013) 

At least darkness didn't imprison him this time.

Lars is a F'king wicked drummer💯

Ok

That cracked me up🤣🤣☝🏼

This made me laugh so hard 😂😂

Yes

It’s because he messed up the lyrics

i cry laughed at this. idk what that means tho

Multiple times

I was thinking the same thing my dude

You ain’t shitting..this is a big fucking deal

@@adriantrusca1245 wowo

and can say his remarks and his thoughts at the same time !

Ikr

Nah, that was totally unnecessary.

🤣🤣

Damn, unfair lol there.

You are a crappy interviewer Howard

I almost cried at that moment :(

Let's keep it light!

2:08 James replied cleverly

You can see his inner child in that exact shot.

It’s immediate he went from kinda smirking and okay to depressed and broken

Yeah!!. I could see that reflected in James's face

Made him realise it so bad that he forgot the lyrics to a song he poate e literally a thousand times

that was just straight therapy

I would not worry about it, it feeds the demon. James is one of the strongest in Rock and Roll for a reason. He thinks it all through without the rest of the rubbish.

It's fucking brutal.

I think Eminems dad can relate to this

“Hey James... Times are really hard now and... Uh I’m sorry I left... (No I’m not) How about a loan of $10,000?”

That’s the beauty of it. James probably wouldn’t have been without his dad leaving

Can be said about half of all legendary musicians.

Hahahahahaha

His mastery of polyrhythms is unparalleled

@@neoneherefrom5836 LMFAO

that's a way of saying he's all over the place as always

@@neoneherefrom5836 *unparadiddled

​@@ethanwest6836😂😂😂

😂 and the following bum notes from 2:50

For real! EMGs!

Sounds like it did in 88

I love his clean tone so much

It's not so clean. Enough chorus on it. Or/and some kind of flanger i guess. But sound really nice!

>Uses the thinnest tone ever >im sure you play guitar, n00b

lol

Or he just plays unplugged

Jason in the background nods his head in agreement

actually lol'd at this haha

He struggled 😭

Chill….

@@thegiftedone it’s true

Indeed

6:55

And James forgetting Darkness

Must be easy to forget with so many song in mind

I don't mind the small screw-ups, but those three identical boring all-snare fills in a row at 6:00 were a bit too much

Lars didn’t mess up and even if he did it was just a cymbal hit. Trust me I play this song on drums all the time. Why do people always hate on lars you realize every single musician messes up right.

@BasketCase 420 2:58

Probably didn’t think Howard was gonna interrogate him about his childhood right before playing the song lol I’d be pretty shook as well

I think Howard said to much

Howard isn't the most sympathetic of guys lol at least not how he comes off

nah

me neither

This song with bass though!

theres a AJFA mix here on YT with the original bass turned up, it sounds so great.

It seems to me more like he is taking the piss after being interviewed by a moron about the song

Noooo!!! .... you're way off base brother?.... Because of Howard Stern? .... Howard Stern is loved by everyone!!! (Everyone cool & honest that is ) !!! WAY TO READ PEOPLE THO !😆😅🤣

Thank you for saying such kind words about this song and acknowledging the performance! This song has truly been a gift to the world! such a beautiful thing to say ( because it is true!) and also another "thank you" is in order, because a 'purist' like myself notices too many things that probably should go unnoticed, yet we nay-sayers seem to always be armed and ready to dissect every note and syllable. ..*as i am about to do*...we notice things such as: the bass wasnt present enough, his backing vocals were non-existent, Lars started off too fast and appeared to want to just get it over with, James 'forgot' lyrics, but i think he was just too focused on and distracted by lars hastiness, and Kirk wore glasses to hide his eyes in shame as his solo was cut. From what i saw, this band is still struggling with their demons..regardless, it was still an amazing performance by one of the most amazing bands that are still with us.

"There’s no better song anywhere, ever." Calm down.

@@thehop639 shut up

My thoughts exactly!

lmao rob is so wholesome i love him

Mind you, Howard airs from 6am-10am Eastern time, so they all likely had to wake up early for this set.

Rob is never NOT happy to be there...dude is a f-ing zen factory!

Wdym lars is just vibing maybe a little too much tbf but there aint nothing wrong with that

For real he was digging up trauma

no he’s undead that’s not the same as living

🤣😂🤣

Lmao

Haha you got me

😅🤣🤣🤣

I started to appreciate them much more when I started playing guitar. While the riffs aren't technically proficient, it's damn good songwriting. The riffs are a lot more impactful and memorable than a lot of bands.

Right. Lars does not deserve all the hate that he gets too

"Heroic energy" you diehard metallica fans are cringy

They are legends not despite but with those errors.

Yes sometimes they do stupid mistakes for being professional musicians, but i like a lot their attitude, it is wild and free in musical expression. It's rare and spontaneous and that's for sure a force. In addition some of their songs are anthems and trash metal masterpieces, so i would not complain. I love them since i was kid, they are living legends in metal music. One is “one” of my favourite song from them

That took an unexpected turn 😂

I agree, LeBron is the goat

He looked like one in 2007

sounds like One 😉

even looks like one sometimes

damn i didnt notice that

Thanks for sharing this! ❤🌈❤

indeed

Yes and I think these Howard’s questions really weren’t neccessary. He has talked about this already, people can search it on website, so why this was needed? Also the song says it all..

@@luciatalajova764 because Howard needs something to talk about on his show?

I think this performance is badass because he's emotional

I agree, 2nd to james

That's Lars trying to "mix it up" but it makes the song sound completely different. There's a reason the song was so popular, and a reason people now consider Lars a shit drummer.

I came to the comments just to see if anyone else noticed lmao

@@Treyorrrr nah he just missed the first cymbal choke, he wasn't trying to mix it up or anything

And 6 seconds before this Kirk failed

@@Treyorrrr No, he messed up. I'm not saying he is a bad drummer because he inspired me to play drums. But he still can make mistakes, don't defend him when its clearly a mistake.

Bro this is perfect lol. I can picture him saying “come on Lars…”

And he still messed up in the beginning 😂

Same

I know man. I was a stutterer from when I was 4 until now. You know exactly what you wanna say, you know how you wanna say it, but you still can’t get it out. Instead you can’t stop saying “um um um um”.

Sssssssshuttt ttthe fuck up

Been there my man. Took a little self confidence to break out of it

Lol

Mic wasn’t turned up enough 😂 poor Rob

Nobody. Never in theirs fuckin lifes

Did they just cut his vocals out?

nah

8:25 When you remember you can still save it

The intention was there but both Lars and James messed up the song lol

It's called "baiting" and it's not cool.

@@snowyrain5730 it’s not baiting

Que disparate con 60 años todavía conserva bastante el tono y la potencia de la voz hetfield

i think he is just trying to sing at speed and wasn't ready lol.. he knows that part.

😂

Exactly my thought🤣

😂

@@urmeniamu 🤣

Hahaha brilliant

🤘 more like ✊

That's what I said too. It really is unique and well done.

Sure! Keep up the spirit

I want them to perform in my efficiency apartment.

James' emotional control is something I admire and want to learn

I agree with this. Man do I ever hate the live version of the drums though. It sounds like an improvisation, whereas the studio version is so beautifully planned.

That's the problem. They can polish up the song in studio, (multiple takes.) But after 30+ years have never been able to pull it off live. Lars was totally exposed for what he is, a hack. Most overrated drummer of all time. Can't keep a beat at all. No inner metronome or meter. Kirk has been keeping these guys afloat for years. James and Lars are burned out. Trujillo never should have left Suicidal Tendencies. Sad really, used to love Metallica back in the day. That was before I knew what real musicians should sound like. Slayer, Megadeth, Sepultura, Pantera...etc. It's too bad.

@@savoieadam for s n m 1. ABSOLUTELY NOT. For s n m 2, I definitely agree

yea it's really not...

I plagiarized the lyrics for an 8th grade english assignment for an A+

Hahahahaahaa. He did completely destroy that.

His Howard Stern therapy session must have messed him up good, lol.

I think he just realized he started to sing the second part first and it threw him off. He didn't want to lose the rythm so he just filled it with placeholders. xD

Epic recovery

He just made up mumbo-jumbo words...lol.

LOL.... I just read the comment after hearing him drum and was about to criticize him. And no, I can't do better. But I do know when drumming sounds off.
